9 below zero and 30 below windchill this morning in SOUTH Dakota.You
would think this was northern Wisconsin! ;-) One week from tomorrow my
wife and I head for Escondido to see my son and his family before
heads to Iraq again. Lake Dixon is is just a couple miles from his
place. I know the timing is wrong but it will still be fun to throw a
line in the former home of a 25lb Largemouth. Joe Z

LOL, it is a might chilly and snow up here right now. If I were you, I'd
take at least one rod and a small tackle tray of lures. The fishing will be
all right, even if the catching is lousy, and it's a lot better than sitting
inside and watching the snow pile up in the driveway!

Joe, I think the state of South Dakota owes my daughter some money. She and
a friend came from Lander Wyoming for the holidays. They left Friday
morning and somewhere around Kimball, South Dakota, my daughter cleaned out
a stretch of the ditch along I-90, saving the highway workers from having to
do it themselves! I guess it was pretty bad driving conditions, as the trip
which normally takes only 18.5 hours took them almost 38 hours! Although 4
hours of that was spent waiting for a tow truck.....

Go fishing when you're visiting your son and thank him for me for his
service to our country.
